M&S Beauty 2026 by the numbers
How each one is countedEvery figure is computed from the record at build time and set against the median of the same season and the same kind of contents. Door price is the price on the box over its doors; the value multiple is what the contents come to at retail over that price; full size is the retailer’s own marking. Where the record cannot support a figure, the page leaves it out rather than guessing.The definitions, one by one →Each figure against the median of this season's beauty shelf — 185 calendars. Green is the better side of the median, red the worse; the median is printed so you can disagree.

Our M&S Beauty 2026 review
Our verdict
Twenty-five products with Estée Lauder, Clinique and ESPA among them for 75 GBP, six times less than M&S's own valuation, is the line that sells this box out every year. No score until M&S prints the doors and opens the basket on 13 October.

M&S puts a retail figure on what is behind the 25 doors; we have not re-priced every item ourselves, so treat the total as the brand's own number rather than ours. The mark on the bar is what you pay.
